I need replacement DiMarzio polepieces!

[JohnnyGuitarCA]

Hi everyone,

I need replacement polepieces for a DiMarzio Evolution. (DiMarzio doesn't sell them.) Any idea where I can get some?

Thanks!

Johnny

They are a standard part. Many hardware stores will have them or you can try the web. I have heard stories of Dimarzio sending them out or selling them. If you haven't called them it could be worth a try.

I have bought poles direct from DiMarzio before, and they were $10.

Has something changed?

So have I. Purchased chrome poles for a PAF Pro.

I think Dimarzio uses 2 kinds
The socket set screws that screws into a slug coil ,Like a Super Distortion
I believe they are metric 5M X 14M
& the screws like in a PAF PRO screw into a screw side bobbin
Dennis carries these

Can you replace the hex screws with regular screw poles?

Zombie resurrection... I notice Dennis doesn't carry the hex poles anymore.

Anyone else have a source? I see the auction listed them as M3x20

Dimarzio used to sell them. I have a couple extra sets of poles for my dimarzios so I can change them from black to silver. Most neck pickups have silver poles so I got a set of silvers for the evo bridge. Also got poles to change color of a Fred.


Just realized this was a necro. I think you will have to search McMaster Carr website.

Unfortunately he doesn't carry nickel ones anymore. I realize my Breed and Evo have different types of hex poles, one with a cup/head, the other without.

Shoot him an email. His super friendly daughter responded immediately last time I did that.

Taking the thread specs off his page, would these work? Obviously not hex but seem to be right length?

[hamerfan]

Length is not important for the fit, if there are holes in the backplate. Like the alloy the lenght is more tonal detail question.

That makes sense. I just wonder if there would be a diameter issue with it not being entirely threaded. I assume that the unthreaded part would be either the same diameter or a bit narrower and not 'thicker' than the threaded portion? If that makes sense...
